As I am an avid 3DO fan/player and also recently got a kick ass computer
set up with which I have had NO problems playing WC3, I am very
intrigued as to the differences between the 3DO and PC version. I'm just
going to have to suck up and buy the 3DO version and play it as well :)
Maybe when one of you folks out here are done with it I could pick it up
used a little cheaper.....
Anyway, as interested as I am in this game, I downloaded a FAQ the other
day from the net and wanted to pass alone some of, what I believed, to
be pertinent and interesting information. This information should
DEFINITELY BE CONSIDERED SPOILERS....

1) HOW DO I PREVENT THE BEHEMOTH FROM GETTING DESTROYED?
You don't. It's part of the story. As the Behemoth prepares for its
attack run on Kilrah, it is ambushed by a fleet of Paktahns. There is
nothing you can do except destroy as many Paktahns as you can (for your
kill tally) before the Behemoth destruction scene plays.
2) THRAKHATH JUST SENT ME A COMM MESSAGE. HOW SHOULD I RESPOND?
Your choices are either to return to the Victory or (prematurely)
take on Prince Thrakhath. Remember, if you don't return to the Victory
in time, you will be left stranded in Kilrathi space, and you'll have to
replay the mission... but even if you do successfully kill Thrakhath and
make it back, he'll still be alive later on in the game, so fighting him
is pointless.
3) HOW CAN I SUCCEED IN DEFENDING EARTH?
You can't. This mission is part of the losing path of the story, and
thus is made to be unwinnable.
4) THE TRAITOR JUST GOT AWAY. SHOULD I GO AFTER HIM OR NOT?
Don't worry about going after the traitor right now. If you don't,
you'll be able to face him later. If you do, the Victory will not be
able to jump out until you return, leaving it wide open for a Kilrathi
attack, an engagement in which Vaquero is killed. In other words, the
best thing to do is to not go after the traitor at this point.
5) IS THERE A CHEAT MODE BUILT INTO WING COMMANDER III?
You bet! On the 3DO version, simultaneously press Left-Shift and the
Play/Pause button to bring up the hidden cheat menu. From here you can
make yourself invulnerable, fly any mission in the game, view any of the
cinematic cutscenes, and more. :)
6) MISCELLANEOUS
In both the original script provided on the Behind the Scenes
Interactive CD for the PC and the _Heart of the Tiger_ novel, the
traitor leaves a holographic message to Blair before he defects, which
Blair finds in his locker following the events between the traitor and
Cobra. According to the script, the video was to have become available
after Blair either pursues the traitor or chooses not to. This scene
was not included in the PC game :( though it is in the 3DO version :)
That's it for now.....this FAQ is great....everything you ever wanted to
know about WC3. It was written by James Hogan, Allen Kim, and Matt
Newman.
